About

High March is situated in Ledborough Lane, Beaconsfield, adjoining Penn Road, in three attractive houses set in four acres of grounds. Facilities include a state of the art 20 metre indoor, heated swimming pool, a well-equipped Gymnasium as well as specialist Science, Music, Art and Design and Technology and Drama suites.

Recent refurbishments include large extensions to the Art Room and Science Laboratory and re-landscaping of all the outside space at Upper School to include a new Adventure Playground, new netball courts and an outside learning classroom.

The playground at Junior House has also undergone a transformation and now has a wonderful, new playground and landscaped natural environment incorporating a theme of British wildlife. In 1926, Miss Warr and Miss Perkins bought a house called High March, just opposite the duckpond in Station Road, Beaconsfield, and opened a school for just twenty children.

Thus, High March came into being. Only a year later, the school had outgrown its premises and the Founder Headmistresses moved their school to 23, Ledborough Lane, the site of Junior House today. Five years later, the Misses Warr and Perkins purchased 3, Ledborough Lane, where Upper School is located today, to support the schools flourishing growth.
